Not a trainer this time.

Chapter 537: Tapu Kokoro also committed the murder of Arceus!
Fighting Z is a Z-Power Crystal that can upgrade Pokémon's fighting moves into powerful Z-Moves.

If it is used on Gul'ton, it can use its Z move: Full Power Musou Fierce Punch.

But... this Combat Z Pure Crystal is of no use to them at the moment!
Naoki looked at Tapu Kokoro in front of him, his face full of hesitation to speak.

If he asked Tapu Chime to exchange for a Z-pure crystal, would he be considered as asking too much trouble?
However, Tapu Mingming didn't think too much about it.

It watched the human named Naoki embed the Z Pure Crystal into the Z Bracelet, then flew backwards and raised one arm in front of it.

"Kakaka!"

Naoki was slightly stunned, then asked, "Are you asking me to follow you?"

"Kacha!" Tapu Mingming nodded.

Seeing this, Naoto immediately understood Tapu Meimei's intention.

The opponent is teaching how to use Z moves!
"Okay, I understand!" Naoki nodded and began to imitate Tapu Hihiko's movements.

Seeing that Naoki was ready, Tapu Naruto nodded and continued his actions.

It crosses its hands in an "X" shape, then assumes a sumo squat position, then punches forward rapidly with both hands in a continuous stream.

At this point, Tapu Hikaru stopped and signaled Naoki with his eyes to do the same.

Naoki: "..."

For some reason, it's quite embarrassing to have an adult do such an immature thing.

Whatever! No one will see it here anyway!
Naoki made up his mind and decided to follow the local customs. He threw away his sense of shame and followed Tapu Hikaru's actions.

He squatted down with his legs and punched forward with both hands quickly and continuously.

At this moment, the Z pure crystal embedded in the Z bracelet seemed to resonate with his emotions and burst out with a dazzling light.

The blazing light was like a blazing fire, instantly enveloping Naoki's entire body. The blazing flames were dancing fiercely, and Naoki felt that his whole body was filled with powerful strength!
This power... is it the Z-power?
Naoki was slightly surprised.

The power burned fiercely in his body, eager to find an outlet.

Next, even without Tapu Kokoro's guidance, Naoki knew what to do.

"Gulden!" he shouted.

"Ah, gash!" Gulden responded immediately.

The next second, bursts of blazing energy burst out from Naoki's body, transforming into dozens of energy beams that poured into Gulden's body.

I don’t know if it was because of the power of Z or because of the tacit understanding between him and Gulden, but at this moment, both Naoki and Gulden clearly resonated with each other.

Naoki closed his eyes and felt carefully. Gulden, who was standing in front of him, also closed his eyes coldly.

The passionate emotions were running rampant in my body, as if a volcano was about to erupt, and I urgently needed an outlet.

At this moment, Naoki suddenly understood why the trainers in the anime had to make such intense movements and shout out the names of the moves when using Z-moves.

Because they are releasing all the energy in their bodies in this way!
Realizing this, Naoki no longer hesitated.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and Gulden in front of him also opened his eyelids instantly, revealing a pair of captivating golden pupils.

"All-out, unparalleled, fierce punch!" Naoki punched forward fiercely and shouted at the same time.

"Shh!"

A fierce fighting fire suddenly erupted from Gulden in front, and the energy flame condensed by the Z power burned fiercely.

So Leton, driven by instinct, pushed his palms forward at an extremely fast speed.

The pure fighting fire instantly turned into huge palms, like a violent tsunami and landslide, and slammed towards Tapu Hihiko in front.

Tapu Kokoro's figure flashed quickly in it, leaving several afterimages in the air. Then, it flew straight into the air, looking down at Guruton and Naoki below.

The huge fighting fists all slammed into the earth, and the terrifying energy instantly created huge holes in the ground.

This force caused a strong impact, and the earth seemed to be shaking. Then, from the distant forest, there was a sound of bird Pokémon being startled and flying away.

After a long time, this powerful and powerful punch finally ended.

Naoki and Gulerton both felt a strong sense of fatigue, as if they had just breathed in.
It's like running 5,000 meters.

"Huh..." Naoki was breathing heavily. As he remembered correctly, Z-moves would bring great burden to the trainer and Pokémon. In a short period of time, he and Gulden had no way to use the Full Power Fierce Punch again.

"Ah gah."

Seeing that Naoki was very tired, Gu Leton turned back to his side and wanted to support him.

Naoki smiled at Gulerton, indicating that it was okay for him, and then looked up at Tapu Kokoro in mid-air.

"Thank you, Tapu Kokoro."

Tapu Naruto nodded at them, "Ka-ka."

Then, Tapu Kokoro prepared to turn around and leave.

Seeing its plan, Naoki quickly shouted, "Wait a minute!"

"Kaka?" Tapu Mingming stopped and turned back in confusion.

Naoki looked at the Fighting Z in his hand, and then asked, "Um, Tapu Kokoro, can I use this Fighting Z to exchange other attribute Z moves with you?"

"Because I have something very important to do, I need the power of Z moves to do it. Now I really need Grass Z and Water Z. If you have any, I can exchange this Fighting Z and some gifts with you."

In fact, Naoki wants to kidnap Tapu Kokoro, but Tapu Kokoro probably won't agree to let him leave because it is the guardian of this island.

"Kaka..." Tapu Mingming was a little confused.

It looked at Gulden standing next to Naoki, indicating that the Pokémon was a Fighting-type Pokémon. If it was replaced with another Z-Crystal, the Pokémon would be unusable.

"It doesn't matter." Naoki shook his head, indicating that if it can't be used, then it can't be used!

After all, they have been staying in the ranch all the time and rarely go out. Not to mention Z moves, they hardly even use the Tai Crystalization of the Padia region.

Therefore, in comparison, other purest crystals are more important.

Hearing this, Tapu Naoki stared at Naoki for a while, then nodded: "Kaka!"

Then he turned around and motioned for Naoki to follow him.

Seeing this, Naoki hurriedly mounted his Gulden and followed Tapu Kokoro into the dense forest in the distance.

Soon, they came to the deepest part of the forest.

Tapu Kokoro stopped, flew to a towering tree, touched inside with its hand, and then flew back to Naoki.

Tapu Mingming spread out his hands, and on his palms lay three Z-pure crystals.

One is a fiery red fire Z with a flame pattern on it.

One is green with a grass pattern on it.

The other one is light pink with a mysterious Z with a strange pattern on it.

Seeing this Z-pure crystal, Naoki was slightly stunned.

Tapu Mingming followed his gaze and saw the pink Z-pure crystal.

It explained to Naoki: "Ka-ka-ka!"

Naoki was stunned: "Did you find this in an ancient ruin?"

Tapu Mingming nodded his head: "Ka-ka!"

"Hiss!" Naoki was quite surprised. Because if he was not mistaken, this pale pink Z pure crystal was very likely the exclusive Z of Dream.

With this thing, Mew can use its exclusive Z move, Origin Supernova Explosion!
"Kaka?" Tapu Kokoro looked at Naoki and asked him which one he wanted to change to.

Naoki hesitated a little, but still chose the one that he could use, Grass Z.

Tapu Kokoro noticed the appearance of this human.

It looked down at the several Z-pure crystals in its palm, then picked up the pink unknown Z-pure crystal with its right hand and handed it to Naoki.

Naoki was stunned for a moment: "You're giving this to me too?"

"Kaka!"

Tapu Hihiko nodded happily, collected the Fighting Z and Fire Z that Naoki sent back, then turned around and flew away.

It was so fast that it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Naoki: "..."

Well, he can't take advantage of this for nothing.

After a little thought, Naoki took out a few bottles of life goat milk and energy cubes from his backpack, and then put them in the tree hole where Tapu Hikaru had just taken the Z Pure Crystal.

If this is where Tapu Kokoro puts things, then it will definitely come back here later. When it sees the life-giving goat milk inside, it will surely know what is going on.

After doing this, Naoki turned around and left with Gulden.

The matter of the Forest Pokémon Café was resolved, and he completed the test given by Hala. Next, he should return to Lili Town to report the situation to Hala.

However, Naoki did not go to Lili Town immediately.

Instead, he took Gulden and the others to a seaside restaurant in the city of Melemele for lunch. At three o'clock in the afternoon, they went to the town of Lili to report on the mission.

In the small town of Lili, in Hala's mansion.

Hara looked at the trainer in front of him with admiration and laughed:

"I have received a notice from Miss Junsha that the Forest Pokémon Cafe has resumed business."

"It's a place for everyone to rest, not just humans but Pokémon as well. It's great to be able to resume business now!"

"You have done an excellent job. As a reward, this is my gift to you."

After that, Hara picked up a yellow-brown Z pure crystal and a brand new Z bracelet from the table.

"This is the Z-Bracelet and Z-Crystal that are unique to the Alola region. With them, you can use powerful Z-Moves."

As they were talking, Hara suddenly noticed the Z bracelet on Naoki's wrist.

He looked surprised: "Huh? You already have a Z bracelet and Z pure crystal?"

Naoki nodded and said, "This Z bracelet is a thank-you gift from the owner of the Forest Pokémon Cafe, Zhihuixing. The Z Pure Crystal on it is a gift from Tapu Kokoro."

Upon hearing this, Hala's face suddenly showed a shocked expression: "You saw the Guardian?!"

Naoki nodded and said, "Perhaps Tapu Kokoro came here because he heard that the Forest Pokémon Cafe had resumed business!"

Hara understood after hearing this. From this perspective, Tapu Mingming must have learned from Zhihuixing that it was this human who restored the coffee shop to business, so he gave him the Pure Z Crystal, right?

"Then you won't be able to use this Z bracelet. In that case, I will give you this Fighting Z! With it, you can let Pokémon use powerful Z moves, such as the All-Out Fight!" said Hala.

Naoki reached out to take it, looking at the Fighting Z, feeling a little complicated.

I never thought that the Fighting Z that he gave to Tapu Kokoro would return to him in this way...

But then again, after the test is completed, shouldn't you have to fight the King of the Island before you can complete the big test?

But judging from Hala's expression, it seemed that he had no intention of engaging him in a Pokémon battle.

However, all tests depend on the King of the Island. The Pokémon League has not yet been established in the Alola region, so what the King of the Island says is the final word here.

"That's just right, there's no need to go through so much trouble." Naoki thought to himself.

"By the way, there is one more thing!" Hara suddenly said.

"what?"

"Zhihuixing asked Miss Junsha to let me tell you that after you left, a trainer visited the Forest Pokémon Café, and the Snorlax that was affecting the business of the café has been captured by that trainer." Hala said.

Naoki was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

In fact, he really wanted to invite Zhi Huixing to run the cafe of the expedition team guild on the World Tree.

But judging from the way Chimaera gets along with the Pokémon in the forest, I'm afraid it won't agree to this at all.

never mind!

Naoki sighed regretfully, said goodbye to Hala, and then rode Gulden away from the town of Lili.

Fighting Z, Grass Z, and Dream Z. I got three Z pure crystals in one day.

Next is water Z.

If you want to get water Z, the best place to go is Poni Island.

That is the island guarded by Tapu Finfin. As a Pokémon with water + fairy attributes, there may be Water Z there.

However, at this time, it seems that the king and queen of the island have not yet been born on Poni Island.

After a little thought, Naoki decided to go to Poni Island first to investigate the situation and see if he could find Tapu Fin-Fin.

If he can't find it, he will look for the local dominant Pokémon and try to find Water Z from those dominant Pokémon.

Thinking of this, Naoki mounted his Gulden and started heading for Poni Island.

At the same time, outside all the universe.

Arceus, the god of creation, was silently watching everything that happened in that time and space.

He saw that the human named Naoki seemed to be planning to go to Poni Island to look for the Pokémon named Tapu Finfin.

Tapu Fin-Fin...

As an omniscient and omnipotent god, Arceus knew everything about Tapu Fin-Fin with just a slight thought.

Is it a guardian Pokémon that can create illusions through the released mist, allowing people to see deceased people or Pokémon, so that unfulfilled wishes can be passed on?
interesting.

An idea suddenly came to Arceus' mind.

His gaze penetrated countless time and space and looked at Naoki.

According to the original plan, Arceus intended to give an important mission to the human and the heroic expedition team he created after his clone awakened.

Correspondingly, they will receive very generous rewards after completion.

But humans are complex and changeable, and Arceus was a little worried that if this human was given such great power, he might use it to do evil things.

For example, harming Pokémon, exploiting Pokémon, using Pokémon to do things that benefit oneself, etc.

Based on everything he had seen so far, Arceus could not guarantee whether or not that would happen.

Therefore, He intends to take this opportunity to give him a final test to see if he truly loves Pokémon and the bonds he has with his Pokémon companions.

Only those with strong wishes and intentions can pass His test.
